I couldn't speak, so I could only smile awkwardly.

The second master sighed sullenly, but he didn't say anything more, his back gradually faded away, and finally disappeared at the end of the Spirit Eater Street.

This time, the second master made a ruthless effort, Li Huaishan and I were separated for a long time before relieving up, my situation was better, Li Huaishan's bones were almost broken apart, and when I walked over to help him, his legs were still a little weak.

"The second master is really ruthless." Li Huaishan couldn't help complaining: "I used to see you play with him, but I didn't think there was anything, I really started with him, only to find out that he was really ruthless." ”

I put his arm on my shoulder, pulled him up from the ground, and he said again: "But the second master is still not practical, you still remember the day when you fought with practical use, if you hadn't reacted quickly, I would have been in the urn now." ”

I asked him, "Ergou, what do you think of the sixth uncle...... Is it dangerous? ”

"It's dangerous," Li Huaishan almost didn't need to think, and opened his mouth to say: "It's too dangerous, your sixth uncle, not only is he very ruthless, but the key person is also very ghostly, to be honest, every time I see him calculating people, my heart shudders." ”

I smiled, reached out and hooked Li Huaishan's shoulder, and walked with him towards the outside of Shiling Street.

The second master was waiting for us in the open space outside Shiling Street, and I knew that he must see my father's handwriting when he came today.

But the second master didn't urge anything, just waited for me quietly.

He went back to the thrift store with me, and waited quietly in the living room for me to bring the letter, and quietly unfolded the letterhead.

The floor had not yet dried, and the smell of mud wafted through the store, except for the "whoosh" of the letter as it unfolded.

The second master looked at every word in the letter seriously, without any expression on his face, but his hands were trembling slightly.

I can feel that the second master is trying to suppress something.

It took a long time for the second master to read the letter, he sighed, refolded the letter, and handed it to me.

After a long time, the second master opened his mouth and asked me: "If not, in your opinion, how to deal with the affairs of Buzhou Mountain?" ”

I said, "During this time, I often heard Boss Jiang talk about funeral teaching......

Li Huaishan interjected in the middle of his waist and asked, "Why is it about the funeral religion again?" ”

The second master waved his hand, signaling him not to interject, and then raised his chin at me and asked me to continue.

I continued: "Over the years, the Funeral Cult has turned the world upside down in the industry, as if all the famous and decent families are not taken seriously by it, this is because, for a long time before they started, they have been carefully planning and accumulating strength, until they have enough capital, they dare to act with great fanfare. Boss Jiang once said that this funeral sect rose almost overnight, but in my opinion, the sudden rise is just a performance, and in secret, they don't know how many years they have endured. ”

The second master nodded approvingly: "Hmm." Go on. ”

I said: "Judging from the current situation, it seems that Buzhoushan is also implementing an unusually huge plan, but this plan is not mature, at least they are not fully prepared. Today's funeral religion has almost restrained the backbone of the entire industry, and it is the best time for Buzhou Shan to take action, but if Zhou Shan is still so step-by-step and cautious, it shows that the current time is not mature enough for them. To ensure that his plan goes smoothly, Bu Zhoushan needs to continue to endure for a while. ”

The second master put his hands behind his back, looked up at the ceiling, and then nodded: "It makes sense." ”

As I put the envelope away, I said, "At present, the burial sect is in turmoil, and the major sect families should not focus on other things. As for Bu Zhoushan, their actions are too secretive, even if they want to investigate them at this stage, I am afraid they will not be able to find anything. I think that since they like to move in the shadows, I should also lurk in the shadows and occasionally hinder their movements in a small way. ”

"Small range?" The second master raised his left eyebrows: "What is a small range?" ”

"I mean, secretly stumbling over the mountains and thwarting their plans."

"Bu Zhoushan was originally a rat in the gutter, acting secretively and impermanently, how can you stumble on them in the dark."

"These things, the sixth uncle is already planning."

When I said this, I felt that the words were not appropriate, so I immediately changed the words: "The sixth uncle should be planning." ”

The second master hugged his arms, stood in place and pondered for a long time, and finally just nodded silently, then turned around and walked out the door.

Before going out, the second master said something seemingly irrelevant: "During this time, you have followed the practical, and you have indeed learned a lot of things, which is very good." ”

With that, he closed the door of the store.

These words seem to have nothing to do with the matter discussed in front of me, but I know in my heart that the second master has already handed over the matter to me.

There is another layer of meaning in his words, that is, there is practicality by my side, and he can rest assured.

This fight with the second master, I finally became sober, it was the second master who made me understand that at the moment I don't have much energy to think about personal feelings, between me and the second master, it seems that there is a huge iron wall, the name of that wall, called the gap, if I can't break this wall, in the face of the strength of the mystery of the mountain, I'm afraid I don't have much chance of winning.

Nowadays, many people, including me and Practical, are speculating that Buzhoushan may be the same as the Funeral Sect, which has a huge energy that goes far beyond common sense.

Perhaps because of the frustration of his self-esteem, since he fought with the second master, Li Huaishan seems to be more attentive than before when he is practicing.

It's just that I have daily practice, and occasionally, I will drive this car, intentionally or unintentionally, at the gate of the seventh middle school, but I haven't seen Shao Kewei once.

Looking back now, in those days, my mood was contradictory, I wanted to get close to Shao Kewei, and even imagined that one afternoon, she and I could sit in the café opposite the old alley and talk about life in the sunshine, but I didn't dare to get too close to her, I was afraid that she would be caught in the whirlpool of the industry, and I was afraid that I would be rejected, but most of the time, I could only force myself to stay sober, as little as possible to not let myself feel entangled, just like I did ten years ago.

If I'm not mistaken, it should be the Qingming Festival in 2009, Yu Heng took the juniors in the family back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, and Yan Yanan went with him, and I was left in the store.

I heard Yan Yanan say that some time ago, an unknown hermit called and said that he was going to send something over in the near future, in order to wait for him, the store has not dared to close recently, but the other party doesn't know if it's too busy, or something else, and now it's been more than a week, and he still hasn't come.

Li Huaishan went to the car repair shop, practical came back very late last night, two months of running finally exhausted his physical strength, when he came back, he had a high fever, and now he is still on a drip at Lao Wen's house.

Early in the morning, I went to visit Practical, and when I saw that he was fine, I returned to the store, made a cup of tea, held a copy of "The Three-Body Problem", and shrank on the sofa to waste my time.

Maybe it's because in the past two years since I returned to my home, my life has experienced too many twists and turns, and now I really cherish the hard-won leisure in front of me.

I sat on the sofa, hiding most of my body in the soft sponge cushion, the crisp sound of breaking waves often sounded when the pages were turned, and a translucent teacup was placed on the coffee table, and the gentle water vapor with the fragrance of tea was steaming along the mouth of the cup.

This kind of leisure did not last long.

At nine o'clock in the morning, there was a knock on the door.

I put down the book in my hand and drank the remaining half cup of hot tea before I let out a long sullen breath and got up to open the door.

Unexpectedly, standing outside the door at this time, there were two old acquaintances.

Qingyazi and Kankan Daoren, I haven't seen each other for two months, but the two of them have changed slightly.

Qingyazi still looks like a hippie without seriousness, but at the center of his eyebrows, there are three more shallow ravines. The last time I saw him, I always felt that his facial features were twisted together, giving people a very depressed feeling, but now, the expression on his face was completely relaxed.

It seems that the section of the great history buried in the hearts of Kankandao people has been unraveled.

To be able to see an old friend at such a time, my heart was naturally infinitely happy, and I immediately removed the chain lock on the door, opened the door of the store, and involuntarily raised a smile on my face: "Why are you here?" ”

Qing Yazi grinned, and the nasolabial folds on the corners of his mouth wrinkled into three folds: "Of course it's a deal." ”

"The retreat who called the store some time ago, is that you? Come on, come on, come in. ”

Qingyazi and Kankan Daoren entered the house one after the other, and as soon as the front foot crossed the threshold, Kankan Daoren tilted his head, sniffed his nose twice, and sighed: "High-grade red robe, good tea!" ”

I'm a person, I don't know much about tea, the tea I drank today was also in February, I Yin brought it, anyway, I didn't say whether the tea was good or bad, only said that I usually eat too sweet, and drinking some tea can relieve greasy.

Actually, I didn't think that eating sweets would make me feel greasy.

After Qingyazi and Kankan Daoren sat down, I went to the kitchen to get a teacup, and helped one of them make a cup, Kankan Daoist tasted tea by himself, Qingyazi didn't seem to be interested in the tea in front of him, pushed the cup aside, and took out a boxy wooden box from his pocket and put it in the middle of the coffee table.

Needless to say, the contents of the box are the treasures he is going to sell.

I leaned over and opened the lid of the box, and I saw a lilac jade piece inside.

The shape of this thing is like a magnified copper coin, the size of a palm, with a round hole chiseled in the middle, and a disc-shaped snake pattern carved on the wall, the lines are round and clear.

I couldn't help frowning, took out the jade bi, held it in my hand and tried the amount.

There is no spiritual charm on the jade, but there is a strange chill on the wall, it is not an ordinary jade cold, but a kind of cold similar to ice crystals, and the weight of the jade is heavier than imagined, enough to have three or four catties.

Then I shrugged my nose again and took a closer look at the scent emanating from the jade.

This thing is indeed very old, at least a product of the Warring States period.

For the first time in my life, I couldn't estimate the price of this piece of jade in front of me, even if there was no spiritual rhyme, just the vintage, quantity, and craftsmanship made it priceless, the problem is that although this thing has no spiritual charm, it is not ordinary at first glance, but it is precisely because there is no spiritual rhyme, I don't know what standard to use to price.
